Is it possible to show videos from SharePoint Online in SharePoint 2013? - sharepoint

I have a SP 2013 intranet and I want to display some videos in an iframe from SPO.
I try this ...
<iframe src='https://mytenant.sharepoint.com/:v:/s/VideoHub/xxx?e=xxx'>
                    
but I get 
mytenant.sharepoint.com refused to connect.
 
In my SP 2013 I go to Site Settings -  HTML Field Security
add mytenant.sharepoint.com but still no luck.
Thanks

Do not use "Copy link" option to get the link to video from document library in SharePoint online.
Instead use below steps to get direct link:
Go to document library and select the file you for which you need direct link
Click on Open the details pane (i icon) from command bar (top right side)
Scroll down on properties pane and Copy direct link using the copy icon highlighted in below image:
Then use this in src property of iframe.

SharePoint how to add button to Navbar in List Template?

I am trying to integrate the SharePoint extension in Teams and can't find a solution, to add a Label, Button or other type of Link to the NavBar.
The list i used was a generated with a template.
I tried to connect the different types of lists, with a homepage which is automatically generated in SharePoint.
After i redesigned the homepage, added the different links in a hero and connected the SharePoint site to Teams, i saw that that after clicking the link which led me to the list i could not go back to the homepage anymore.
The only way to access the homepage again was via dropdown on IT-Tickets and reload tab or closing it entirely.
The question is, how can i add an Element, after Open in SharePoint which links me back to the homepage ?
You cannot add a link to SharePoint list command bar using SharePoint out of the box capabilities.
You have to develop a SPFx ListView Command Set extension to add a link or button to SharePoint list command bar:

How do I get a menu on the left hand side of my SharePoint page?

I have created a SharePoint site using Office 365 and I am trying to get the menu to show down the left hand side as currently it is along the top of the page. The site layout is set to Seattle but the menu does not show. Some of the articles I've read talk about clicking on Navigation link in site settings but I cannot see this link. Not sure if there is something I need to enable.
How can I get this to show?

You could enable publishing feature, you'll see the setting.

How to make document library in top level visible to subsites

I'd like to ask if you came up with a solution that will allow for subsites to access a centralized document library at the parent level. I'm still trying to no avail. I've tried doc library templates, views, Doc Center and the best method i have OOTB is a page view web part on the subsites page display a view from the parents library. (by the way to remove the ribbon, append ?IsDlg=1 to the url and the ribbons hidden) cool tip. Say will you give be a Y/N on a solution that will allow one to keep a set of documents in the doc center and surface them in the sub-site.
There are another option without such hard coding. You can open any view of your document library, as mentioned earlier AllItems.aspx for example with SharePoint Designer. Open it for editing in advanced mode (there are option when you click right mouse button on file in SP Designer). Then just point mouse cursor inside web part and chose in ribbon web parts, Add to Site gallery, see the picture. Fill in name of new web part. That is all, now you can add this web part on any page on any web site from webpart gallery through the user interface or through the SP Designer by clicking Insert, Web Part in the ribbon on any page.
You can do this by editing the AllItems.aspx (or other view page) and scraping off the WebPartPages:ListViewWebPart and pasting it into a page on the subsite.
This will give you an error "List does not exits The page you selected contains a list that does not exist."
Then you need to get the WebID for the root site (where you took the ListViewWebpart from and replace the part of the webpart that looks like this:
<WebId xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2/ListView">00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</WebId>
with (for example)
<WebId xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2/ListView">7b04dee8-b120-4dee-abea-28b77316ec7d</WebId>

Insert Link/Picture "From SharePoint" grayed out in the ribbon

In the ribbon, I want to insert a picture or a link into a content page, but the "From Sharepoint" button is grayed out and I can only upload an image or insert a link "From Address". My field is rich text. I'm using SharePoint 2010.
How can I make the link available?
Thanks
Do not muck with the ribbon to make this work!
Totally depends on how you want to use it.
First of all, the Publishing feature must be active on Site Collection level and on the site where you want to add your rich content.
Then, if you activate the Wiki Home page feature you will have the SharePoint option availabe on the page.
If you want to use it in a custom list, it gets a bit more complicated.
The normal Rich Text field greys out the SharePoint option. And you can not add the Full HTML with publishing field directly to a custom list. So the solution is to create a new site column based on the Full HTML field. And then add that site column to the custom list. This field is part of the publishing infrastructure. So only available on SharePoint Server 2010
Unless you have the "SharePoint Server Publishing feature" under "Site Settings" -> "Site Features" activated, these options are not made available to you.
Usually ribbon button is grayed out if you didn't add CommandUIHandler element for it in your CustomAction XML.
For more details, you can see this MSDN article:

Also, you can find useful this article (with sample code and screenshot):

Accidentally deleted a webpart, how can I get it back

I have deleted "New comment" webpart on the Blog Post detailed Page on the my SharePoint blog site, I am unable to find it in the webpart list.
How can I get undo / add the webpart back.
If you have clicked the X button in the top-right corner of the web part, it is simply closed. You can get it back as follows:
Click on Actions, Edit Page
Click Add a web part
Click Advanced Web Part Gallery in the top bottom-right corner of the dialog
Click on Closed Web Parts in the tool pane on the right
Drag the closed web part from the tool pane back onto the page
If you have actually used the drop-down menu on the web part and clicked Delete, it really is deleted. If you have check-in/out available to the page you can go back to a previous version to restore it. Otherwise you will need to restore from backup if you have one.
A very usefull way to see all web parts on the page, including closed ones, is the Web Part Maintenance Page, which is accessed by simply adding '?Contents=1' to the page address
I faced the same problem (it was my mistake :(), but I am able to get my “New Comment” webpart back on the page by using SharePoint Designer.
Steps to get “New Comment” webpart back on the page
Create New blog site just to get “New Comment” list form Webpart
Open Newly created blog site in SharePoint designer and address]/ Lists/Posts/Post.aspx page and
Copy the full XSLT code of “New Comment” list form Webpart
Go back to your production blog site and place the copied XSLT just after “comments” list view Webpart on the page
Provide “your comments list GUID” under List Name property of the copied XSLT
Save and close.
That’ it. Your “New comment” Webpart is back on the page

"If you have actually used the drop-down menu on the web part and clicked Delete, it really is deleted."
Here is a solution that does not require SP Designer and fixes the problem in a couple minutes.
In fact, it is only the Default View associated to the webpart that is deleted. Click on View All Site Content. Then on the defective library link. It will open the listedit.aspx page. Go down to the Views section. Select another view or create a new view and make it the one by default. That's it. You are back in business. Of course, you need to correct the library link in the Quick Launch section.

In my case it was a "Summary Link Web Part" that was added to a Document Library and the user accidentally "x'd" out off it. I found the "closed" web part by doing the following:
Click on "Site Actions | Edit Page"
Click on "Add a Web Part"
In the "Categories" list box on the left the last folder is "Closed Web Parts". Select the Web Part and re-add it.
